Summary
Joo Incheol, a trusted advisor to Representative Lee Myungseon—an aspiring Minister—seemed to have secured both influence and prestige. Yet, his career takes a precarious turn when he faces the possibility of losing his standing among the advisory staff.
Assigned to handle the volatile Central District redevelopment project in Songmoon City, Incheol is determined to navigate the political and social conflicts at all costs. But his resolve is shaken when he encounters Ahn Pyeonghwa, the stubborn gym owner at the heart of the dispute—and his own neighbor.
Pyeonghwa’s one unusual request to Incheol is as shocking as it is unsettling:
“Can you please hit me?”
What begins as a professional challenge spirals into a personal struggle, blurring the lines between duty, desire, and morality.
